Cleft v1.12.1 on iOS showing a voice note with properly styled code blocks rendered in monospace.
Code blocks look the part. Monospace, proper styling, both themes.

In this release

Two things that make Cleft tougher.

Plus8improvements & fixes

01: Code blocks
Note rendering

Code blocks look the part.

Monospace font, proper background, distinct in both themes. Code blocks now render the way you'd expect them to in any modern note app. Paste a snippet, screenshot it, share it without translation.

  • Monospace font. Set automatically inside fenced blocks.
  • Distinct background. Stands out from prose without shouting.
  • Both themes. Light and dark, no contrast surprises.
02: Transcription

Three transcription wins, one release.

Phantom words from quiet rooms are caught and dropped. Low-volume audio is normalised before transcription. Long titles get a progress indicator instead of disappearing into a spinner.

No phantom words

Catches words that aren't actually in your audio.
